The Pecnliar interest attached to the distinguished subject of this Portrait renders it an object of general attention.— The spectator will not be iliSappointed, lot• the likenesS is correct, the expression calcUlated to excite Syrupathit, and the picture altogether highly creditable to the Artist. 80. Dewar!rn•e of the Dili gc,rce for Rota a. 11" !Cc LIANS, A. Scenes of this nature, if faithful representations, are very amusing, as they afford a strili ng contrast to our own manners, an►t t lie appearance of our countrymen. The figures here are well varied, and so discriminated as to produce a diverting contrariety. They are well grouped, and all seem to be earnestly engaged according to their several views and dispo- sitions. The whole is marked by natural character and ex presOun. 82. Portrait of a favourite Terrier. J. RAMSAY. The fidelity of the canine species entitles them to be consi dered as humble friends, perhaps more sincere and faithful than those of loftier pretensions, and with incalculably greater opportunities of g'ervice. We therefore look with respect on those who put themselves to expellee to preserVe the re membrance of this steady and active follower of man. This picture is a very spirited representation of a very handsome animal. 65. Portrait of a Lada. T. Prilir. - Ps, R A. A very beautiful portrait of a very pleasing woman, and, if we are not mistaken, highly intere sing to the Painter himself. It is evidently painted eon amore, for the hand of the Attist seems to bare been animated by feelings much nobler than a thirst for fame, or any less refined emotion. 92. Portrait of the Bishop of Winchester. H. HowARD, R.A. A correct and faithful portrait. 95. The Mouth of the Time, with a View of North and South Shields. A. W. CA L r.coTT, It. A. We noticed this picture in our general report of the Exhi bition on Tuesday, but we feel it to be our duty to recur to it as a work that will add to the reputation of the Artist. It is full of the same tranquil sentiment, the same judicious selection of objects, harmony of composition, repose of co lour, and impressive gi;neral effect, which the Public have so long admired in his works.

The Anniversary Dinner of this Society, an In stitution dear to Genius and Learning, and one of the most honourable featu'res- of the present generation, took place yesterday at Freemasons' . Hall, and was well attended. The Duke of So rdEasET was ill the Chair. The wilal loyal and constitutional toasts were given, and received with hearty applause. The health of the 1•13ble Chair man was proposed by Sir V6l. CLAYTON, and re ceived with the warmest approbation. The Duke returned his thanks with emphatic brevity. Sir B. HoanousE, Mr. W. SMITH, Mr. QuIN, Mr. RowcrtorT, and the Rev. Dr. YATes, severally addressed the company in behalf of the Institu tion. Mr. FITZGFIIALD, whose loyalty and whose Muse are ever ready on any meritorious occasion, being desired to favour the company with a reci tation, complied with hit usual promptitude and good humour. The Hiles which lie recited were highly animated, and after having written so many on the same subject. show that his imagi nation,as well as his humanity, - arc ineXhauSlible. We shall take an early,opportunity of presenting them to our Readers. Thu y Were, as usual, well recited, anti much applauded.. The Rev. Dr'. PATES stated the amount of the subscriptions, and the benefactions for the last year, as well as the receipts for the evening. The 911(115 received since the last Anniversary the Rev. Gentleman stated to amount to 1157/. 3s. Bd. the benefactions to 820/. 53. 'fire subscriptions in the course of the evening were, we are happy to understand, very considet able. Several Musical Gentl►tnen contril►oted ma terially to the entertainment, by several songs, selected chiefly from the compositions of Mr. SHIELD. ARGYLL Rooms.—We were touch gratified in seeing a very tom:emus and elegant audience last night attending these Rooms, at' the concert of Miss SHARPE, Will,SC skill on the harp, though she is so early in life, has raised her to a high and well merited rank in the musical world. She per formed a concerto in a very beautiful style. She also accompanied Mrs.SAt_moN in an air of BisnoP, joined in a duet, for the flute and harp, with Nl couLsos, and afterwards performed a solo to the delightful air Ali Perdona, with variations, well composed and admirably executed. The vocal performers,, besides Mrs. SALMON, were Mr. and Mrs. LACY, BELLAMY, who sung " Father :William" with great expression, Mr. and Mrs. VAUGLIAN, and Miss GOODALL, who all ably ex erted themselves. BRAHAM, who had been kept late at the Theatre, arrived just before the Finale, and sung an English air so well as to be .univer sally emoted. The Band was led by Mr. H. SMART. Sir G. SMART %VHS at the piano-forte. In course of the evening Signior Puzzt gave a concerto on the French-horn with extraordinary skill, and NICHOLSON an air with variations on the flute, performed with taste and great execution. The orchestra was well supplied, and the whole was a very gratifying entertainment.

POETRY. rIFTH EPISTLE TO. THE EDINBURGH REVIEWERS. Seditio Cirium—hostiotn cst occasio. Seditious subjects make successfni foes ; This is a truth no quibbling carvoppose. • Some, indeed, practice, some sediti•ni preach, And different shares of blame belong to each ; nit if that blame be portioned as 'tis due, not COBBETT'S self will rival you. Let m't, then, now unmask your factious tricks, And shen• the dangers of your politics.. Neutral for sonic few years you stood aloof, As if to truing your ta!ent s to the proof; Defuse you dar'd a flight to try your wing, To show how keen Your bite, how sharp your sting; Those years nut one dita.ct attack you made, And rarely was the cloven foot display'd ; Till that ill-omen'd time When at the helm The self-call'd rill the Talents. the RealM ; A Constellation thought fix'd firm on high; Tisey prov'd mere falling Stars that gleam and die. They rose and vanish'd—not as Pirr had done, rliglng and setting the radiant Sun ; They shot athwart the sky a meteor light, An instant glar'd—then left a darker night ; Or, rocket-like, they strove aloft to soar, Then burst, and sparkled—and were seen no more. Mere men of straw, like straw on fire they hlaz'd, And whilst the flame rose high, men wondering gaz'd ; But wills that sunk the light which once allur'd, And all their brightness was by smoke obscur'de Such were the Talents—such their rise and fall--. But, without —, how could they be all ? You came an,lplac'd, to make that adjunct right, Your farthing candle by their blaze of light. The soaring blaze sunk quickly and was gone ; The farthing candle burnt, and still burns on ; But could not light again the Talent's blaze, Nor yet a flame amongst the People raise. Then, put it out; and hence chagrin You must endure from disappointed spleen ; You, Who at Ministers in vain revile, Spitting each quarter self-defiling bile. Meanwhile I will attempt a nearer view . Of what you did and what you strove to do. When Fox was gone, the Party's boast and ptide, (Sad for his fame he had not sooner died I. Then had posterity, still undeceiv'd, All that his fond admirers told, believ'd ; Ere he gave proof that speeches may delight Front one who has•not equal powers to write; That he who eloquently blames, may fail Himself to guide the State when storms assail : But to his ashes peace ! around his tomb, With all his faults, a deathless wreath will bloom.) Fox gone ; the party lost its poise and spring; They would at once be Ministers and King; Till as they struggled to impose their yoke The Monarch from their toils indignant broke; Took other Counsellors, who rul'd the land With a more steady, tho' less grasping hand; Who deem'd not putting in and turning out Were the sole objects woi thy of their thought; Who plann'd no senseless Dardanelles attacks : Did not on rough materials Tay a tax; Nor play'd at. PAUL and PETER in Finance; Nor; tilt her power was crush% sought.peace with France. Actions, not words, were theirs; they did, not talk'd ; Firm in the course which PITT had trae'd they walled, Till, glad event be did not live to see, They set the nations from their thraldom free. Allied or single; in success or crosses ; Thro' every change of fate : in gains or losses ; This one grand alas they steadily pursued. Yet all their deeds with jaundic'd eyes you view'd; This the sole burden of your critic song; 1)o what. they would the Ministers were wrong. Attack howe'er they might—succeed or fail— • , Still, —, would you like THERM Es rail. If they succeeded, then they did no good— 'Twas courage misapplied—mere waste of blood : Btst if they fail'd—who could not have foreseen What of such plans the issue must have been ? Employ'd on projects without aid or aim Their Generals must e'en Britons lead to shame. It seems as if desirous of defeat, Like Russian wives they gloried to be beat. Whilst. BUONAPARTE, hero, man of might, Was always splendid, always in the light. Tito' by a stroke of his apostate pen He made hinisi:lf and army Mussulmen Tho' by a British Knight in war excell'd, From Acre's ancient walls he was rercll'd; Tho' to his own sick troops he poison gave; And tho' he massacred the captive hrare; Tho' in the Council, when he felt dismay, By LUCIAN 'sav't.l, in battle by DEsAtx ; Tho' he cut short the haple,s d' ENGII I EN'S life, And liv'd incestuous with his brother's wife; . Thu' lavish of all blood except his own ; ito' he as meanly won as lost the throne: Yet for this ruthless tyrant. this apostate, This vile assassin, in the dust 11(4 prostrate, You pleaded ; you felt pity far his fate, And bade us not insult the fallen great. The fallen great ! Yes--great indeed in evil; . Great as his ghurious prototype the Devil;. And fallen too like him—llC er may he rise But on the rock where he imprisoned lies Instead of war's loud din, hear ocean's roar, Repent, make peace with God and plot no more. For even now it tills the soil with dread • To think how near all liberty had tied; Yet in those times of terror and disunity, When Britain stood, and stood alone at bay, E'en then you, —, joining with her foes, Did all you could to par.tlvze her blows; With views and motives like that viper laud, Which strove to , trike, with parricidal hand, (When on a thread her fate suspended hung) The mother soil from which herself haul sprung. Both saw her worn by wars and faction'. broils; And both were eager to partake her spoils; She o'er America's vast space to rule; You to become a BUoNAPARTE tool ; To wear his princely titles, court his smile, And he the TA LLEYRAND of Britain's isle. ‘Vere she suhdued,•you might such honours claim— And were she not, vote had another aim ; Perverting facts and straining argument, You nourished faction and rais'd discontent ; And when the State most tabooed in the storm, Then was the time you chose to cry—Reform. By which was meant—change measores and change men— Replace the Talents at the helm again. Thus will success be ours; for be it known, The reign of talents is ill fact my own.

HOUSE OF LORDS, TnunsnAY, MAN , 7, A Local Bill was brought np from the House 01 Conimons by Mr. S‘vann, and other Members, and read a first time. The Spirit Intercourse Bill, the House of CON reetion Clivia'ns' Bill, the Workmens' Wages Bill, and the Pardon tinder the Great Seal Bill, passed through Committees. The Loan Bill «•as read a 3d time and passed. Sykes's Hydrometer Bill, and the Vest India Trade Bill, were read a second time, and com mitted for to-morrow. COTTON FACTORIES. Lord KE NY ON t‘ ished 10 know, with regard to the Cotton Factolies Bill , whether the Noble Lotus would object to the second reading, upon the understanding that the discussion should be taken in a Stlbs!•Cipent stage ? If there Wail no 01)- jeclion to such all arrangement, he %visited to give notice of his intention to move the second readirg to•rno1 row. The Earl of LAUDERDALE said, he bad an ob. .jectiom to the clauses hi this Bill, which went to limit the number• of hours of labour, and which, in fixing a maximum of labour, indirectly established a maximum of wages. This was wholly contrary to the hitherto. established system, and was, in his opinion, an interference with free labour, which might be productive of highly injurious conse. quences. As, however, his objections did nut apply so much to the principle of the Bill as to the clauses, he had no objection to the arrange ment proposed by the Noble Lord. The Earl of LIVERPOOL did not wish to pro• tong the discussion, but could not avoid remark ing upon what had fatless Irons the Noble Lord who had just sat down. Ile (Lord Liverpool) highly approved of the Bill, and considered it so much a principle of the common law of the land that children should not he overworked, that lie was desirous some words should. be introduced into the Bill to declare this fact. lie agreed witlx the Noble Lord, that free labour ought not to be interfered with, however unwholesome ot• detete rions might he the nature of the business or ma nufacture ; but, to have free labour, there must be free agents ; and he contended, that the chii. dren, to whom this Bill applied, were not free agents, nor• could they, in any sense, he so con sidered. It was therefore necessary, in his view of the subject, to resort to some legislative enact ments, to prevent them from being exposed to that excessive labour, to which, there was no doubt, they were at present exposed in Cotton Factories ; nor was there any doubt that such excessive ta booe was highly injurious to them. Lord KENYON gave notice of his intention to move the second reading of the Bill to-morrow. ROYAL ALLOWANCES. The Darla I,II,TERPOOL moved the third reading of the Duke of Cambridge's Allowance Bill. The Earl of LNUDERDALE desired that Ilia PrinCe Regent's Messiige, and the Address of tho House in answer to it, should be read. They were accordingly read by. the Reading Clerk at the table. The Eatl of LAUDRIMALP. then observed upon the situation in which the House was placed with reference to that Message and Address, and to the Bills upon this subject now before them. It ought to be recollected, that to the marriages of the Royal Family the consent of the Crown was alone necessary. If ParliaMent chose, let them take the consent out of the hands of the Crown, and de clare that .their consent should be necessary to any such marriage. But while the law remained, as it was, he was decidedly of opinion, that the making provision with a view to the marriages of the branches of the Royal Family ought to be looked to with reference'only to the general ab stract principle of providing for the succession to the Crown, and not with any view of favouring one individual member of that Family, or evincing a dislike to another. He could discover no reason, for instance, why the Duke of Cumberland should have been refused the additional allowance pro pose:l to be granted to him. 11'hen his Royal Highness first married, there was some kind of prejudice existing to the effect that the ,marriage was not approved of. This, however, had wota away, and he was wholly at a loss to discover what had occurred since to induce the rejection of the proposed grant to his Royal Highness. He could not but consider, with reference to the dis tinctions which had been made in the cases of the illUstrious Dakes, that it was altogether a most injutions principle to act upon; because it neces— sarily cast a stigma upon the individuals to whoth the proposed allowance was refused ; and in the case of the Doke of Cumberland, he could disco— ver no reason whatever for casting such a stigma. Ane this tendered it the more injurious, as favour or dislike, arising from mere caprice, were thus . _ made tl(e instruments of legislation with regard to the Royal Family, than which nothing co u ld b e more prejudicial to the dignity of the Crown. He (lid not wish to pursue the subject, because he did not wish to excite dissention; and it had been the employment of the greaser part of his The rather to reconcile differences than to excite disentions. Lord HOLLAND so far agreed with his Noble Friend, that he objected to the mode .proposed with regard to the allowances to the illustrious individuals in question but he did it on the ge neral ground that they ought not to he taken out of the fund upon which they were charged. 'lt was infinitely better that a revenue sbouli be granted to the Cr9wn, Out of which provision might be male for the marriages of the branches of the Royal Farnily, than that application should, in each .particular instance, be made to Parliament, from whence arose an increase of the burdens upon the people. lie could . not agree in the doctrine of his Noble Friend, that the rejection of a proposed allowance to a branch of the Royal Family implied a stigtn% ',port the illustrious individual allud,d to. 'Ma- i(;rities of the House of Commons had seldom 82 reed with his Noble Ft lend or himself in the line of politics which they 1?4+31 adopted, hitt his Noble Friend would surely not contend that thereby it stigma was cast up thetn.—Ele had no idea, whets he entered the (louse, of taking any part in a (Hsi' cession of this nature, and therefore he was not prepared with any enletdAtions, but he believed he Was correct in stating, that 'study a million
